Amiga

The Amiga is a family of personal computers sold by Commodore in the 1980s and 1990s. Based on the Motorola 68000 family of microprocessors, the machine has a custom chipset with graphics and sound capabilities that were unprecedented for the price, and a pre-emptive multitasking operating system called AmigaOS. The Amiga provided a significant upgrade from earlier 8-bit home computers, including Commodore's own C64.

The Amiga 1000 was officially released in July 1985, but a series of production problems meant it did not become widely available until early 1986. The best selling model, the Amiga 500, was introduced in 1987 and became one of the leading home computers of the late 1980s and early 1990s with four to six million sold. The A3000, introduced in 1990, started the second generation of Amiga systems, followed by the A500+ and the A600. Finally, as the third generation, the A1200 and the A4000 were released in 1992. The platform became particularly popular for gaming and programming demos. It also found a prominent role in the desktop video, video production, and show control business, leading to affordable video editing systems such as the Video Toaster. The Amiga's native ability to simultaneously play back multiple digital sound samples made it a popular platform for early "tracker" music software. The relatively powerful processor and ability to access several megabytes of memory led to the development of several 3D rendering packages, including LightWave 3D and Aladdin 4D.

  • Amiga (record label)

    Amiga is a popular music record label in Germany. Once an organ of the East German state-owned music publisher VEB Deutsche Schallplatten, Amiga became a label of the Bertelsmann Music Group in 1994.

    In 1947, German actor and singer Ernst Busch got permission from the Soviet Military Administration in Germany to create a music publishing house, which was named Lied der Zeit GmbH ("Song of the Times"). This publishing company included the label Amiga. In the 1950s, Lied der Zeit became VEB Deutsche Schallplatten ("German Records"), a state-owned company with a monopoly on record production. VEB Deutsche Schallplatten had a number of labels, each with a different purview; Amiga releases included folk, jazz, pop, rock, Schlager music, chanson, and children's music.

    After the dissolution of the German Democratic Republic, most of the former East German public state enterprises were dismantled or sold to private investors. The Amiga label and catalog were acquired by Bertelsmann Music Group in 1994, which in turn was dissolved into Sony Music Entertainment in 2008.

    Amiga

    by: Alexander Acha

    Sabes que estas invadiendo
    Cada sentimiento que hay dentro de mi.
    Rogas despiadadamente
    Cosas que mi mente no qiere decir
    Y me asalta tu mirada
    Sin piedad
    No me puedo defender
    Me tendiste una enboscada
    Una vez mas
    Estoy rendido mirame
    Amiga
    Si te acercas otro poco no resistire
    Te besare
    Amiga,
    Como es que no te das cuenta
    Que ya nada puedo hacer
    Me enamore.
    Usas despiadadamente tu arsenal
    De armas para seducir
    Entras ingeniosamente
    Por puertas de mi alma
    Que no suelo abrir
    Y haces malabares
    Con mi voluntad
    Soy alfil en tu ajedrez
    Con el corazon a punto de estallar
    Ya me tienes a tus pies.
    Amiga
    Si te acercas otro poco no resistire
    Te besare
    Amiga,
    Como es que no te das cuenta
    Que ya nada puedo hacer
    Me enamore.
    Amiga
    Si te acercas otro poco no resistire
    Te besare
    Amiga,
    Con tan solo dos palabras
    Te lo explicare
    Te lo dire
